NAK. Please do not add such mess to the Makefile. It does not belong there. If you want such behaviour, it should be added to the make command itself. I repeat myself, but all this cmd_* / quiet_cmd_* stuff etc. we see in the Linux kernel Makefiles (and copied around into a zillion of other projects) does not belong to the Makefile; it should be implemented inside make itself. I never understood why nobody bothered to solve the problem at the root.
